North Carolina to tend search engine servers

I doubt they'd move anyone from santa clara to lenoir; I imagine most of these jobs are little more than lightbulb changers. all the meaningful knowledge work will be done from afar, all they need here are grunts to rack, plug, and power on.

From the article:

the jobs available at Google (ed., in Lenoir, NC) will average about $48,300

Well, I predict this output will be populated by a significant contingent of H1-Bers, unless people on the left coast are chomping at the bit to get out of their high-rent digs into a lower-cost housing market.

Jiaozi and palak paneer mixes it up with brunswick stew, y'all!

I'm sure a huge cheer by realtors in the area just went up, because the scramble for elite properties, like these (http://www.homesandland.com/ListingSearchReturn.cfm?PersonId=748981), has just started, for the poor, poor folks from Mountain View that will be "asked kindly" to go tend the modern-equivalent of a steam-driven industrial loom in this NC hinterland.
